Rue 57

Agree that single diner is ignored

While the food is good this restaurant is very inattentive to the single diner. I have eaten here 3 times and this has been the case. You are given the worse table and ignored. I requested a change of table and was told it was "reserved" although the table was empty the full time I was there. Perhaps a male diner dining alone is given better treatment but not a woman.

Can't go wrong

Great meal with a client. Food, service, decor and atmosphere were sopt on. They also had not problem when I had to move my reservation 2 times. Nothing but nice things to say about this place. I will return often.

Always a Winner

Whenever we're in NYC, a meal at "the Rue" is a must! Always bustling,and staffed with young pleasant waiters serving delectable food....morning, noon or night! Whether it's my favorite light butter lettuce salade or a feast of Kobe beef sliders with fries followed by creme brulee, it's all yummy! My husband has jumped all around the menu, too - anything from fresh oysters to the herb-roasted chicken.

Service needs work

I have been here many times both with friends, co-workers and on my own after a long workday when I had no energy to cook. When I'm here as a party of one - I have been unpleasantly shocked to find that I'm summarily ignored. Wait staff, runners, everyone will walk by the table and neglect to even make make eye contact much less bring some water or bread. Last time I was here it took 7 minutes to be acknowledged. Pretty unacceptable. And the same thing happened last night. Even a simple greeting makes a wait more palatable. But no eye contact at all just deducts percentages from any tip. The food is pretty good but if the service doesn't improve, I'll be suggesting another locale for office functions.

Expensive, mediocre food and rushed service

I would only recommend eating here if you're in a hurry for expensive, overpriced, mediocre quality food. They bring food so fast and rush you out the door so they can seat the next table its obnoxious. The table next to me hadn't even fully sat down and they were taking their app order. The apps came and they hadn't even taken their coats off! Rude, rude, rude!! Add to that a cheesy atmosphere and expensive prices.

RCS Northvale loves RUE 57!!

This restaurant is our office's favorite. The service is always on and the variety of the menu is key as it offers something for everyone.
